How to center a figure in live script output

On the right, you see the output panel of the live script. When I plot a figure, output is always left-aligned. How can I center the figure?

Here is a different way to describe my problem. I have some figures in the live script output that has a long title. Because it is long, the title is cut off.

If you use the Position option in the Figure defintion you can use the width and heights to push the figure into the center
figure('Position',[1000 100 1500 1000]);
If you play around with the values you should get the images in the center.

The movegui() function seems to be what you're looking for, specifically movegui(figureName, 'center')

In the livescript, it doesn't seem to work.
Yeah, sorry about that. Just tested it out and it centers the new window that you open for the figure on your screen.
No worries! Thanks for the response though!

What if you adjust the live editor to have figures inline? Button on right hand side of editor.
